+# What's new in babel 24.1
+
+**Draft**
+
+A new version numbering scheme is adopted, better suited to the rapid
+release cycle of `babel` (every few weeks). The first release in year
+2024 is `24.1` (there is no zeroth release 🙂).
+
+## More 'interchar'
+
+There is a new key in `\babelprovide` for predefined ‘interchar’
+declarations. A set of declarations has been added for French, with the
+name `punctuation.space`:
+```tex
+\babelprovide[interchar=puntuation.space, import, main]{french}
+```
+
+‘Interchar’ declarations are done in the corresponding
+`babel-<locale.name>.tex` file, with the help of a new macro to filter
+which ones are setup, namely `\IfBabelIntercharT{<list-of-interchar>`.
+
+(Incidentally, a couple of wrong names in the French locale `tex` files
+has been fixed.)
+
+## Improved Gujarati
